Black Metal.

That's what I thought. Thanks.

The only other black metal albums I've bothered to check out this year are the new Burzum and the new Countess which are both great. The new Profanatica and the new Inquisition album (cumming out this fukking month!) should be tops on this list as well.

I find Engram amazing in places but horribly inconsistent.

 

[Addo_Of_Nex]

I agree in that the first three tracks are just about impeccable, the next two great but a little drawn out, then the album reaches its highest point with the pair of "Suck My Blood" and "Demon Advance" (the latter being the best Beherit song and one of the most brilliant closing statements ever imo). That minor dip in quality is pretty much its only flaw though.

New Abigor is terrible.

This is making me sad.

New Abigor is terrible.

I've been mostly listening to Engram, Averse Sefira and Lunar Aurora lately. What have I missed?

The only Abigor I really know is Fractal Possession, and I don't like it at all. Engram is one of the best 2009 albums in my opinion. Averse Sefira and Lunar Aurora are both great, so excellent picks.

The new Profanatica and the new Inquisition album (cumming out this fukking month!) should be tops on this list as well.

Fuck yes, I'm really looking forward to them.

So anyone listen to the new Twilight? I listened to some of it yesterday, it wasn't too bad.

The new Countess does sound pretty good. I'll have to put it on more.

It really is. The Manowar cover is fucking awesome.

Finally got around to Cor Scorpii. Pretty good stuff, not quite up there with Windir, but very similar if a little more "airy" sounding.

 

[unknown]

^^pretty much, but still a good listen every once and a while...but no windir

 

[damnromulans]

Windir are cool for sure! but I think they would have been so much cooler with more organic sounding instrumentals. Budget concerns etc aside.

I'm checking out the previous Profanatica album as you guys suggested and at first I was like "wait, is this the new Havohej?" and then I checked the line-up. Not a bad thing though, I even like Kembatinan Premaster and this even has some guitars/harmony in it.

The new Countess does sound pretty good. I'll have to put it on more.

Is it better than Blazing Flames of War?

I was kinda hoping this would link me to the new Inquisition. Soon my pretties!

NICE!!! Ordered the vinyl/CD package deal.

Anyone ever heard Yaotl Mictlan? Kind of interesting, some moments reminiscent of The Chasm.
